I'm wearing it, but I'm still suffering.

Chapter 347 Liu Yunyi's Questions

Liu Yunyi pretended to be frightened by her and quickly gave in: "Alright, Daddy trusts you now, right?"

As they were talking, the three of them came to the yard. Liu Xiaoxiao first put the wine jar on the table, then took a small wine glass from her mother and filled it for Liu Yingcai.

When Liu Yingcai saw her carrying a jar out, he had already started to guess in his mind.

Thinking back, she had just told me a few days ago that she wanted to make wine.

Looking at the cup in front of him, what else is there for him to not understand?

But since it was brewed by his granddaughter, he had to taste it no matter what.

After saying that, Liu Yingcai picked up the wine glass, sniffed it lightly, and then frowned slightly.

Liu Xiaoxiao looked at her grandfather nervously, her heart in her throat.

Liu Yingcai took a sip, then a complicated expression appeared on his face. He said, "This wine tastes a bit strange."

Liu Xiaoxiao was a little frustrated, "Grandpa, is it hard to drink?"

Liu Yingcai first shook his head and smiled, then smacked his lips and continued, "Not really, it's just that the taste is very novel, a little astringent, but with a hint of fruit aroma."

Liu Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up. "Grandpa, this is wine made from pomegranates. I thought pomegranates are sweet and sour, so they must be good for making wine."

Liu Yingcai suddenly realized something and said, "So it's pomegranate wine. No wonder it has such a refreshing fruity aroma. But the brewing process still needs more refinement. If we can get rid of that astringent taste, then this wine... can be considered a top-grade, fine wine."

After hearing her grandfather's comments, Liu Xiaoxiao wasn't upset. Instead, she explained, "Grandpa, you might not know that the pomegranates I use for winemaking are the first crop, so it's normal for them to taste a little astringent. As for the brewing problem you mentioned, I'll pay more attention to it in the future."

Liu Yingcai nodded with satisfaction. "Xiaoxiao, it's great that you're thoughtful. This wine may not be the best right now, but Grandpa believes that with your cleverness, you'll be able to brew a truly exquisite wine in the future."

Liu Xiaoxiao smiled happily and said, "Thank you for your encouragement, Grandpa. I will definitely work hard."

Liu Yunyi, who was standing by, heard them talking so enthusiastically and said, "Dad, Xiaoxiao is so concerned. Does this mean our family will have another money-making project?"

Liu Yingcai stroked his beard, looked at Liu Xiaoxiao and asked, "What do you think?"

Liu Xiaoxiao knew what Grandpa was asking, so she answered, "Not yet. We need to plant more pomegranate trees and wait until they bear good fruit before we can make wine from them and sell it."

When his daughter mentioned planting a pomegranate tree, Liu Yunyi realized it belatedly. "Right! If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten to ask. Where do you get the pomegranates for winemaking? Are there any trees like this in our village? When did you pick them? And, it's almost winter now. How can there still be pomegranates hanging on the trees?"

Liu Xiaoxiao didn't expect that his father would suddenly ask so many questions.

So she was stunned for a moment.

Then, she said the excuse she had prepared in advance, "Dad, you ask too many questions! But fortunately, I can still answer them."

"Let's first talk about where these pomegranates come from! First of all, these pomegranates used for winemaking are not from our village. I bought them from an old man when I went to the market in town last time."

"According to what he said at the time, these pomegranates were picked from the last fruit tree in their family. Because his wife took good care of it, the pomegranates were still growing well even though winter was approaching."

"Of course, they were also not very good at selling these pomegranates because they were the first harvest. But I tasted one and thought that although they were not particularly sweet, they were still good for making wine, so I bought them all at the lowest price."

After listening to her explanation, Liu Yunyi shook his head helplessly and said, "Girl, you just like to spend money recklessly."
